If it had been anyone else summoning her, Dorothy might've willfully ignored it, but since it was her own mother who had called, she had no choice but to obediently follow behind the Succubus Witch towards the direction of the Great Colosseum.
What made her speechless was when she asked Madeline how her mother knew she was there, the Succubus Witch replied like this.
"Actually, it's because, Miss, your cooking slled so good, it could be slled from above, so your mother casually asked who was cooking. You know, it's not a wise choice to lie in front of a Peak Witch, so..."
So you sold out?
The hobody witch glared resentfully at the guilty-looking Succubus Witch, feeling utterly defeated inside.
She swore she would definitely set up a magical barrier to isolate the sll the next ti she cooked.
However, speaking of which, Euphilia indeed ntioned to her just yesterday that she would stay behind to accompany her in her studies, even though Dorothy strongly argued against it, saying she was already of age, able to take care of herself and didn't need her mother to stick around.
But with the Dragon Witch's overbearing nature, Dorothy didn't get a say in the matter. Once Euphilia made up her mind, the hobody witch's objections were pointless.
It was just that, after the school ceremony yesterday, Euphilia had parted ways with her, seemingly to speak with the Academy Head. Dorothy originally thought her mother would be too busy to actually find the ti to tutor her, but, contrary to her expectations, her mother was extrely efficient, having even found herself a position at the academy.
Tsk, the new Combat Magic coach for the Ard Society. Isn't it overkill for a Peak Witch to be doing such work? It's like using a cannon to kill a mosquito, such a waste of talent.
While Dorothy was lost in her thoughts, the three of them had already arrived at the Great Colosseum. From afar, they could see two witches "dueling" in the Arena... Explore hidden tales at empire
emmmmm, maybe it wasn't right to call it a duel. It was more like toying with soone, the way an adult teases a child.
Dorothy recognized the identities of the dueling powerhouses at a glance since both parties were acquaintances of hers—one was her mother, the other, her old online friend Senior Mia.
At that mont, Senior Mia, who had forced Dorothy to use her trump card to win during the School exams a few days ago, was the child being toyed with.
This ti, Senior Mia wasn't constrained by any seal on her magic power. She was fighting at full strength, the overflow of magic from each move causing Dorothy's scalp to tingle. If Dorothy had faced Senior Mia in this state a few days earlier, a re punch, even one that missed, would have been enough to send her spitting blood uncontrollably and collapsing to the ground.
In the face of an absolute power disparity, there's no room to show off any fancy tricks.
However, the formidable Senior Mia, who had once left an indelible psychological scar on Dorothy's young soul, was continually taking spectacular falls in the arena, barely standing up for more than a second before toppling over again.
Across from Mia, Euphilia appeared to have sealed her magic power and even handicapped herself by not using her legs or one arm, simply standing still and fighting Mia with one hand.
Yet, even so, Senior Mia, who seed so powerful in Dorothy's eyes, barely had the strength to fight back.
"All right, that's enough, Mia. You've grown complacent over the years. The comfortable life at the academy is nearly ruining you," said Euphilia, disappointnt in her eyes as she watched her forr apprentice after yet another slap buried the Golden Princess's head into the ground. She shook her head in disapproval.
Mia, pulling her head out of the ground, now a disheveled ss and nowhere near her usual poised big sister deanor, could only lower her head, not daring to retort.
What could she do? This was the person who had once been the Devil Instructor at the special training camp in the Dragon Kingdom. Mia's family had sent her to that so-called genius training camp for an intensive course, and even now, the mory of that training makes her shiver.
Those devil coaches didn't treat people as humans, not even as animals.
Mia had thought that after enduring that nightmarish period, she wouldn't have any more dealings with that Devil amongst devils instructor, especially since she was an Artillery Witch with an emphasis on practicing all kinds of spells for the future combat system.
However...
God knows how terrified Mia was this morning when, upon opening her door, she saw her forr instructor waiting for her right there at the doorstep. At that mont, Mia thought she was still half asleep, or how else could she have such a terrifying nightmare?
What was even more frightening was that this Devil Instructor even smiled and told Mia she would take up the role of Combat Magic coach for the Ard Society. What kind of horror story was this?
Having left the Devil's training camp and enjoying a carefree campus life, and now the Devil Coach becos my club's instructor?
Damn...
In her fright, Mia instinctively punched herself in the stomach, hoping to wake herself from this nightmare, but the intense pain that ca from her belly made her realize in horror that this was reality and not a dream.
At that mont, Mia's stomach hurt, but her heart hurt even more. She was ready to quit the Ard Society right there and then.
However, when she summoned the courage to look up at her forr instructor, the resignation she was about to voice, "I want to quit the society," sohow couldn't make it past her lips.
And now, after being beaten by the instructor till she was sprawled on the ground, searching for her teeth, the weary Golden Princess decided that she would go find the Club President later to resign and quit the society. She couldn't stay in the Ard Society any longer, right?
But then again, the instructor seed to have softened up quite a bit today. Her punches and slaps only hurt sixty percent as much as before, and it was over so quickly. Did she actually stop before I was beaten to the point of immobility?
Mia found it kind of hard to adapt to such "gentleness" from the instructor.
But when the Arena's magical barrier dissipated, revealing the three witches outside, Mia finally snapped out of her daze.
Tsk, so people have co, that's more like it. How could the Devil Instructor possibly change her stripes so easily?
And the brain that had just been rattled by the beating finally rembered that before the "sparring" with the instructor, the Club President had gone to call a cook, who shared the sa na with her Little Fairy, also called Dorothy.
Just as Mia was thinking this, she then saw the Dorothy by the Club President's side.
Ah, so it's not just a nasake, it's actually her Little Fairy.
The mont she saw her beloved, Mia instantly cleared her head of dizziness and her eyes of blurriness. In the blink of an eye, she went from a dirt-covered crazy woman to her usual gentle and kind self, radiating maternal warmth like a Big Sister.
Alright, I've decided, I won't quit the society just yet. To think that my Little Fairy can cook and has been brought back by the Club President as a nutritional consultant, her culinary skills must be fantastic. I'll quit the society after today's al.
That's what the Golden Princess pondered in her heart.
Then, with wide eyes, she watched as her sweetheart approached and then, ignoring her completely, ran over to the Devil Instructor and respectfully said a sentence.
"Mom, were you looking for ?"
Mia: "???"
At this mont, the Golden Princess felt her ears must have been damaged by the instructor's beating. What on earth did she just hear? How could her Little Fairy possibly call that Devil Instructor mom?
Impossible, absolutely impossible.
...Senior Mia questioned her life choices...
